Was the 31k including some other rebate?
I know sometimes they offer rebates ($3-5k) or low financing, if you went with the low financing, it may have bumped up the price, throwing in a service agreement ($1-1.5k) and TT&L ($2-3k) and your back to about right with $38K. Also, what were the other goodies?
